How to use potassium in a sentence?
Potassium is an important electrolyte for proper muscle movement.
They also contain potassium, which can help support healthy blood pressure, as well as antioxidants, especially in and near the skin of a fresh peach.
They are a source of the antioxidant lycopene, which not only can protect from certain types of cancer but is a carotenoid that can protect the skin from sun damage, tomatoes are also a great source of potassium, which plays a role in controlling blood pressure.
This study tells us much of what we already knew : Electrolytes -- like sodium and potassium -- contribute to better hydration, while calories in beverages result in slower gastric emptying and therefore slower release of urination.
In the presence of potassium iodide, hydrogen peroxide decomposes almost immediately.
